[Requiem] Gifts

[frothy-bunny.livejournal.com]

When someone gives you a present you have to wonder what they are saying with it, Flowers that are wilting? you’re slipping in my favour.  A new jewel or necklace, a rise in position of esteem? or that you too are now owned.  It is all about the subtle differences.  So when Michelle brought me the box I was a little wary of opening it, it meant that someone had noticed me.  The gown and nightdress inside were most beautiful and the note had the sweetest handwriting I had seen in a long time.  I pulled the nightwear from the box and held it against my pale skin as Michelle tried to hide her smile of appreciation.  The colour matched my eye’s.  I had been noticed, on my first night in a new court, and they had taken an interest, I was pleased.

A canny vampire could probably unlive on lost luggage and a smile.

Yes maybe, but one must always look good while doing so, and plus, people bought me clothes :) (ok they were off the shelf, but she can't help that she needs better education, after all, she tried)
